Seraphin® Slip-on Calibration Unit accelerates the job of calibrating multiple fuel dispensers while at the same time enhancing the safety of personnel. Productivity is increased and the possibility of injury, fatigue or spills are avoided by eliminating the need to carry & pour test measures filled with fuel after each test. Many petroleum service companies are creating new calibration profit centers based on the dramatic productivity that the Slip-On Unit provides. Calibration Technicians and Weights and Measures inspectors report that they are calibrating over twice as many meters per day as compared to the hand-carried test measure method typically performed.
Each unit consists of three 5-gallon, type 304 stainless steel, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) complaint bottom drain provers, which are individually plumbed to 80-gallon transfer tanks. This allows up to 48, five gallon, calibration tests before the need to drain back to the fuel station's underground storage tank. The sight glass between each prover drain valve and leveling ball joint enables the user to visually insure the compliance with drain requirements.
The frame design enables placement into the bed of a full-size pick-up truck using a forklift, crane, or optional lift-off jack system and can easily be removed and reinstalled, taking away the need for a dedicated vehicle.
